Fire safety standards for all types of business were instituted and enforced.
The Triangle Shirtwaist fire had a huge impact on workplace safety standards. During the incident 146 people died and 71 were injured, all because the owners had locked the workers into the work rooms to prevent them from taking unauthorized breaks and reduce theft. This was a common practice at its time, but the fire that started in the workrooms showed just how dangerous this practice could be. The terrible incident led to improved factory safety standards, and also helped increase the size of the International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union (ILFWU), which fought for safer, better working conditions in sweatshops.

It can be presumed, partly due to the political connectedness of the owners and also, undoubtedly, due to the lack of any laws at the time regulating workplace safety. The Triangle Shirtwaist Company apparently was only practicing the standard workplace security and anti-theft practices of the time.

The public was shocked and outraged by the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire. It resulted in the deaths of 146 garment workers, most of whom were young immigrant women. This tragedy shed light on the terrible working conditions and lack of safety regulations in the garment industry, leading to widespread public demand for workplace reforms and stronger labor protections.
the tragedy of the Triangle Fire showed the public how bad the working conditions were in factories and sweatshops. It shocked the public, and therefore, people felt inclined to help. In addition, New York and other states passed new safety laws to help to protect factory workers. Hope this helps.
